Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David, at the completion of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O sons of God, bring to the Lord the sons of rams.

En salme av David. Gi Herren, I Guds sønner, gi Herren ære og makt!

2 Bring to the Lord, glory and honor. Bring to the Lord, glory for his name. Adore the Lord in his holy court.

Gi Herren hans navns ære, tilbed Herren i hellig prydelse!

3 The voice of the Lord is over the waters. The God of majesty has thundered. The Lord is over many waters.

Herrens røst er over vannene, ærens Gud tordner, Herren over de store vann.

4 The voice of the Lord is in virtue. The voice of the Lord is in magnificence.

Herrens røst lyder med kraft, Herrens røst med herlighet.

5 The voice of the Lord shatters the cedars. And the Lord will shatter the cedars of Lebanon.

Herrens røst bryter sedrer, Herren sønderbryter Libanons sedrer,

6 And it will break them into pieces, like a calf of Lebanon, and in the same way as the beloved son of the single-horned beast.

og han får dem til å hoppe som en kalv, Libanon og Sirjon som en ung villokse.

7 The voice of the Lord cuts through the flame of fire.

Herrens røst slynger ut kløvede ildsluer.

8 The voice of the Lord shakes the desert. And the Lord will quake the desert of Kadesh.

Herrens røst får ørkenen til å beve, Herren får Kades' ørken til å beve.

9 The voice of the Lord is preparing the stags, and he will reveal the dense woods. And in his temple, all will speak his glory.

Herrens røst får hindene til å føde og gjør skogene bare, og i hans tempel sier alt: Ære!

10 The Lord causes the great flood to dwell. And the Lord will sit as King in eternity.

Herren tronte på vannflommens tid, og Herren troner som konge evindelig.

11 The Lord will give virtue to his people. The Lord will bless his people in peace.

Herren skal gi sitt folk kraft, Herren skal velsigne sitt folk med fred.
